      Description

      Yahoo Finance has been discontinued as of November 6, 2017. Attempting to access the currency conversion page results in a 403 Forbidden response.

      It has come to our attention that this service is being used in violation of the Yahoo Terms of Service. As such, the service is being discontinued. for all future markets and equities data research, please refer to finance.yahoo.com.

      Due to this discontinuation, it should no longer be available in Blesta.

      1. Remove all references to Yahoo Finance
      2. Change Yahoo Finance exchange rates to use Google instead (in an upgrade) if Yahoo is currently set as the default processor in the installation
